Old thread, but I've come to post a correction- The timeline of the original concept art is incorrect as presented in the OPs first post- The Snowtrooper officer [commander] was ALWAYS the first focus of McQarrie's concept art The order of concept went Snowtrooper officer/Commander--->...

Good to hear. I know I need to replace my wife's jango knees, so will be following

Printed out. Buddy is dropping it off today, so I get to see what it looks like all together, can't wait! Grip was printed via SLS through a company in the area. Helps to keep high-detail prints clean

Reviving this thread to show off what is coming soon! This is one of the props I've been wanting to do when starting this project, based off the concept art for Star Wars Bounty Hunter. While the in-game pistols are largely the same overall design, they added a lot more detail to that final...

I'm still lurkin....

Hmph, I didn't know you were there. I saw ya'll outside the panel room before we went in.

Take into consideration your head/body size. Both animefan (screen-cast helmet) and Cruzer/BKBT are great helmets, but sizes are significantly different- Screen cast helmets are much smaller and Cruzer/BKBT are much larger. I'd say no shorter than 5'10"- 5'11" you're alright for the Cruzer/BKBT

The Animefan helmet is a screen cast Jango. Cruzer's helmet is the BKBT (Vince) which he produced before the screen cast helmets became available.

I'll tell you that Rubies is not exactly going to lead you to a satisfying build. The inadequacy of the Rubies helmet is what led me to getting into this hobby in the first place

You're going to want to probably go with a Screen-cast Jango helmet as the base for this. Both because it'll be sized better for you and it's an excellent "base" mando helmet. There's a local girl who was looking to do this costume as well, but she's tiny and comparing sizes between my BKBT and...

Which images are missing? They're all showing up for me still

I didn't/couldn't find a pattern for this particular part so I had to scratch build it myself using reference images. I determined the overall size I need it to be, cut out a section of Sintra, heated and curved it to about where I felt it looked right, then, eyeballing it, made the cuts to the...

I've only ever seen one pair of metal Westars made BEFORE MR produced their own set, but those look a bit different from what I recall. This actually looks like the main body/barrel is derrived from the MR designs, but I see the slight difference in the muzzle's shape. The grips, on the other...

Yea I failed miserably at dyeing the hoses. It was a messy experience I wish to not repeat

Further explaining why I still need to switch to using an airbrush..
